How to Choose Loaders

by Robert Mullins

A loader is a kind of multi-purpose and high-efficiency construction machinery. The medium can be large, medium or small. We can use it for loading and unloading soil, sand and gravel, coal and other comprehensive materials. It is suitable for mines, ports, infrastructure, road construction and other operations. We can use it in factories, stations, docks, freight yards, warehouses and other conditions. For loader users, they want to obtain higher returns and reduce investment risks. When purchasing a product, they should not only consider the price factor. They should weigh it from many aspects. The loader should meet the requirements. It should be easy to use. This should obtain the maximum income.

1. Determine the loader with the corresponding rated load according to the operation quantity.

To achieve the best economic benefits, loader users should buy loaders with certain load capacity. This depends on the principle of practicality and adequacy. It is according to the amount of work. It cannot be large or small. Excessive capacity causes waste. Small capacity is not enough to use.

Firstly, for pavement construction operations and large coal mines, the load capacity of the matching shipment machinery is above 10 tons. This is due to heavy workload, long working cycle and spacious working environment. At this time, we should select a loader with a load capacity of 5 tons or 6 tons. This can improve the operation efficiency. It can reduce the construction cost. A 5-ton loader can meet the requirements. It has super-strong rising power and super-large bucket capacity. This is practical for coal mines and ports. It is a new product developed according to specific market needs.

2. Determine the loader with the corresponding driving speed according to the working condition

For ores with high density, solid raw soil or loose materials with low density, such as soil and coke, there are great differences in loader selection. It is due to different working conditions.

For those materials with high density such as solid raw soil and ore, we should select products with low working speed, large digging force and traction force. This is due to the high requirement on traction force (insertion force). It can ensure normal use. The loader adopts an extended frame and a long wheelbase arrangement. The body structure is stable. Excavation force and tipping load are the largest. It is suitable for hard earthwork operations.

Loose materials do not require high traction of loaders. We can choose products with faster driving speed. This is to achieve higher working efficiency.

Due to the different working media, many companies have introduced special products for a specific working medium. Some companies have designed different working devices. This is to meet the needs of users under different working conditions. For example, in order to adapt to the coal loading operation, they have introduced special buckets for coal mines, special buckets for coke, rock buckets, wood grabbing, snow pushing, etc. The special equipment can match with loaders. It makes the machine multi-purpose.
